Well I guess its Dec 2nd and still no ONA Live. Guess someone had better check out their local HMV to see if its on the shelves. I might get down to Virgin at lunchtime, I'll let you know what I find.

Just checked hmv.co.uk and it says release date 15th Dec. (I presume it means 16th as 15th is a sunday)...

My Account says "In Progress" still and I havn't had the e-mail. I know this means absolutely nothing but just wondering if anyone else is still in this situation.

I think we're all in that situation (although some may have gotten the e-mail). Nobody in the UK has reported receiving the CDs yet.

I didn't get the email either - although looking around the posts NPGMC have acknowledged that they have email distribution problems so I don't think it means anything.

I came back home (Kent) this afternoon to find a 'while you were out' card from the post office. It could be nothing but I'm not expecting anything else right now.

Unfortunately I have to wait until tomorrow to find out.

Talk about suspense!

the release date on hmv.co.uk has changed AGAIN back to 9th December, although they've taken it off their main Coming Soon page - anyway whatever, that means Prince has 5 days to deliver to NPGMC members before it hits the shops (well 4 for me as I live in Dublin and we don't get post on Saturday's)!! i won't hold my breath...

NPGMC (Lori) confirmed that my order (to Reading UK) was shipped on the 22nd November. All our UK copies should arrive very soon now. It's been 10 days already.

I wish this would turn up, I think we're all desperate to hear it now - I know I am.
I left late for work this morning in the vain hope that today might be the day, but judging by UK distributors such as HMV not getting this for a few days yet I'm not overly optimistic for the rest of this week.

I hope that it is available in stores also however, as I want to buy this for a friend of mine for Christmas - he is a big fan, but just not in the NPGMC...

I don't understand why it's taking so long, very unfortunate...it's been in progress since the 7th November.

Yep join the club. I've emailed twice now and still no joy... i know they've probably had a million of the same emails but frankly that's no excuse!

Sorry guys - false alarm. Another day without the boxed set *sigh*

I have to say, I think that lady from Gage was telling a fib or two. It doesn't take that long to get something from the States to the UK.

Pain in the arse, innit?

Will something worth 50 quid come by normal postie? Won't it be UPS or Fed-X. We need tracking numbers, now that would be an interedsting request for NPGMC!!

Dont know the answer to that soapstone as I am still waiting for ONA piano so dont know how that was distributed. Still that means I might have a "failed delivery" note when I get home tonight - better than nothing!

Of course the next thing will be every UK member being charged masses via Customs.

Morning all UK Orgers!

Has anyone received this bloody thing yet?

I really didn't want to have to buy it in HMV, but that looks like the reality I guess...if I want to hear it before Xmas anyway.

One of our Canadian cousins posted this morning that they had a reply from the club a few hours ago effectively telling them that some of the ONA live CD sets haven't been shipped yet i.e. depending upon where you live...

Will somebody cheer me up, and surprise me with the knowledge that they live in the UK and have received the set this morning...?

I shall wait in patient and optimistc anticipation!
